Effectiveness

How Fluoxymesterone Affects PatientsFluoxymesterone is a man-made version of the male hormone testosterone. It attaches to androgen receptors which triggers reactions in cells that involve the making of proteins. These proteins can cause a variety of effects, such as preventing the growth of some types of breast cancer, promoting male characteristics, and producing red blood cells.
How Fluoxymesterone works in the bodyFluoxymesterone is a powerful synthetic steroid. It is similar to testosterone and works by binding to the androgen receptor. It helps your body retain nitrogen, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, which helps build muscle. It can also help reduce levels of estrogen and prolactin in the body, which can have an anti-tumor effect.
